Women in the Qur'an

Book • 2016
Asma Lamrabet's Women in the Qur'an: An Emancipatory Reading offers reinterpretations of contested Qur'anic passages to reclaim women’s agency within Islamic scripture.

Lamrabet situates verses in their historical-linguistic contexts, challenging patriarchal exegeses that have marginalized women.

She argues for readings that foreground justice, dignity, and gender equity as consistent with the Qur'an’s core values.

The book combines scholarly analysis with a commitment to reforming religious practice from within Muslim communities.

It has influenced Islamic feminist scholarship and activists seeking grounded theological resources for gender equality.
